Steps:
- Peel and slice carrots, and dice the peeled potatoes into small cubes. Then boil the vegetables over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until tender but firm. Drain completely.
- Remove seeds and stems from ancho chiles.
- Place 2 cups of water in a small pot and bring to a boil, then immediately remove from heat.
- Add chiles to hot water and steep for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Remove softened chiles from the pot and blend in a food processor or blender briefly until the mixture becomes like a paste. Add 4-5 tablespoons of water from the pot and season with salt.
- Place the sauce in a pie pan or shallow dish.
- Heat just enough vegetable oil in a skillet or comal to cover the surface of the pan. Leave at medium high heat.
- Place the tortillas into the sauce and smother both sides.
- Fry the tortillas in the skillet or comal for about 10 seconds per side, enough to moisten the tortilla but not break apart.
- Fill the tortilla with queso fresco cheese and onions (optional) or any other savory filling of your choice.
- Return the rolled enchiladas to the skillet for another minute to reheat along with the carrots and potatoes. Add the remaining sauce to the vegetables until coated. Add more oil to the pan if needed to make the enchiladas slightly crispy.

Steps:
- In a medium size mixing bowl, add shredded beef and diced onions, mix well and set aside.
- In a medium size sauce pan, add the oil, flour, and chili powder. Turn to medium heat and whisk the ingredients together.
- Continue to whisk as the mixture begins to boil for one minute, then whisk in the water, tomato paste, cumin, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper until smooth. Allow the sauce to come up to a simmer. Once it reaches a simmering boil it will begin to thicken slightly after about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Add salt to taste and 1/4 teaspoon sugar, mix to combine and then add about 1/4 cup of sauce to the shredded beef mixture and stir to combine. Set aside remaining sauce for enchiladas.
- In a small size skillet, add oil to medium-high heat. Gently add one tortilla at a time and fry to a semi soft stage. Dab each tortilla with paper towels to remove excess oil.
- As each tortilla is fried and dabbed with paper towels, stack them to keep them soft for rolling.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or spray with a nonstick cooking spray a 9x13 baking dish. Set aside.
- Lay (one at a time) fried tortilla on a flat surface, add about 2 tablespoons shredded beef mixture to the middle of the fried tortilla and top with about 1 teaspoon shredded cheese.
- Roll the tortilla tightly and place in the baking dish (seam side down). Repeat until all 12 tortillas are filled. (For best results, line the enchiladas into two rows of 6).
- Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the top of the filled tortillas, and then add remaining shredded cheese evenly to the top of the sauce and top with the sliced olives.
- Cover baking dish with foil and bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until bubbly and hot. Serve with sour cream, optional.
- Makes: 6 servings.
MEXICAN ENCHILADAS RECIPE
Steps:
- Warm the oil over very low heat in a heat-proof shallow dish or skillet. You want it very warm but not burning hot.
- Keep another heat-proof dish or skillet over low heat to keep the tortillas warm.
- Dip each tortilla in the warm oil for 5 to 8 seconds until the tortilla is warmed through and pliable.
- Put the homemade or purchased enchilada sauce in a shallow dish or bowl so that you can easily dip the tortillas in it.
- Do the same with all the tortillas.
- Fold one side over, then the other side.
- Turn the enchilada over, seam side down, so the tortilla stays closed, and place it in the baking dish.
- Repeat with each tortilla until you have filled the dish. Depending on the amount of filling of used and the size of the tortillas, you will use between 10 and 14 tortillas.
- Serve and enjoy!

Steps:
- Snap the tops off of the dried chilies, and place in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain the water, and place chilies into a food processor or blender with the garlic and salt. Puree until smooth. Press sauce through a strainer, and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Soak each tortilla in the sauce, then place in the hot oil. Turn over almost immediately, and fry for about 5 seconds on the other side. Remove to a plate that is lined with paper towels. The easiest way to do this is to fry the tortillas and stack them directly on top of each other until you have fried them all. This will keep the tortillas pliable until you are ready to fill them.
- Take one fried tortilla at a time, and fill with about 2 tablespoons of the queso fresco. Roll up, and place seam side down on a plate. Place three of these on each plate. Top in the following order: Start with a layer of sour cream, then a small handful of lettuce, three tomato slices, 2 more tablespoons of queso fresco, and finally, 1 tablespoon of green onions.

AUTHENTIC ENCHILADA SAUCE
Great sauce and very authentic enchiladas. If you want a hotter sauce, just add some cayenne pepper when it's done. Ancho and pasilla chile peppers are dried chiles, and may be available at your grocery store, or a Mexican market.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place chile peppers on a cookie sheet and roast in the oven until slightly toasted. (Note: When you can smell them, they're done.)
- Remove from the oven and slit them open. Remove the seeds and veins, then put them in a bowl with boiling water to cover. Allow them to sit for 30 minutes, then remove them from the water, reserving the water. Scrape the pulp from the insides of the chile peppers and discard the skins. (Note: The skins will give the mixture a bitter flavor.) Return the pulp to the water and set aside for later.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, saute the garlic and onion in the butter or margarine for 5 minutes, or until onion is tender. Add the flour and mix well. Add the stock, stirring until thickened, and then add the reserved chile pulp mixture. Finally, add the oregano and the cumin.
- In a blender or food processor, puree the mixture until smooth. Season with salt to taste.
